these are different hw blocks configured specifically
for the corresponding peripheral.

It is an requirement that each lane can be enabled/disabled
and configured individually. Also it is potentially possible
that some of them are different due to calibration results.

since each lane can be enabled/disabled individually, a disabled
lane can have a node defined but with a status = "disabled" or
does not have a lane node defined at all. this example shows the
latter.

good point. will change to phys = <&gbe_serdes0>, <&gbe_serdes1>;
